CBF shifts Corinthians’ fixture in women’s Brasileirão round six | OneFootball

The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) has made a change to the calendar of the Brazilian Women's Championship and rescheduled the match between Corinthians and Red Bull Bragantino, valid for the sixth round. Initially scheduled for March 31, the game will now be played on April 3, a Friday.

According to the entity, the change was made due to a "programming schedule adjustment" requested by TV Brasil. The broadcaster formally requested the change on February 12. Corinthians holds the home advantage, but the location of the match has not yet been defined in the CBF system. Since the match is scheduled for 9 PM, the team will not be able to play at Fazendinha, which remains unable to host night games due to problems with the lighting system.

In the second round of the competition, when they drew 2-2 with Fluminense, Corinthians hosted the match at Neo Química Arena. Despite this, the attendance of 5,178 fans resulted in a loss of R$ 38,619.46 for the club.

As stated by president Osmar Stabile, the complete modernization of the Fazendinha lighting system is estimated to cost around R$ 10 million. Given the high cost, the management is seeking partnerships to make the renovation feasible.

Before facing Bragantino, Corinthians will have three more commitments in the national tournament. The team will face Palmeiras on March 13 at Arena Barueri. Then, they will host América-MG on March 23 and finally visit Botafogo on the 27th at Estádio Nilton Santos.
